What 1,061 owners told NHTSA about the 2016 Honda Civic Type R

BOUGHT THE CAR IN MID FEBRUARY AND IT BEGAN TO READ "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM" ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED ON AND STATIONARY A FEW WEEKS AFTER. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN MARCH AND THEY "CLEARED" THE CODES AND TEST DROVE IT. IN APRIL, THE SAME ERROR APPEARED BUT NOW WITH MORE ERRORS SUCH AS "TIRE PRESSURE LOW, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM AND ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM." I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AGAIN AND THEY REPLACED THE "ABS MODULATOR" AND "CLEARED" THE CODES. ONCE AGAIN A MONTH LATER (JUNE), THE SAME ERRORS ARE APPEARING.

VEHICLE HAS REPEATEDLY THROWN ERRORS WITH WARNINGS TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND HAVE IT INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAS ALREADY BEEN TO THE SHOP TWICE FOR THE PROBLEM. IN BOTH CASES HONDA INSTALLED AN UPDATED VSA MODULATOR THEY CLAIMED WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. IT HAS NOT. NOT THE LOCAL DEALER DOESN'T EVEN WANT TO SEE THE VEHICLE AS THEY TELL ME THEIR IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO FOR US. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE EMAILED HONDA CORPORATE TO HAVE A REGIONAL REP CONTACT US. IT HAS BEEN 4 DAYS SINCE. THEY SAY THE VEHICLE IS SAFE, BUT YET THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT THEY CANNOT CORRECT, AND MY CAR IS NOT ALONE. PLEASE LOOK AT THESE TWO SITES TO SEE EXAMPLES: HTTP://HONDACIVICPROBLEMS.COM AND HTTP://WWW.CIVICX.COM/THREADS/TPMS-ABS-BRAKE-SYSTEM-ACC-FREAK-OUT.1002/ EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. EACH TIME THE ERROR MESSAGES APPEAR AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE. EACH TIME THE WARNINGS INSTRUCT YOU NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. ERRORS INCLUDE: CMBS PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, TIRE PRESSURE LOW, AND CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM.

CAR DOORS WILL SOMETIMES REFUSE TO UNLOCK / ACKNOWLEDGE REMOTE CONTROL AFTER THE TRUNK IS CLOSED. THE CAR'S COMPUTER CRASHES. VIDEO OF ME EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=NNBIWHK2TBG IT'S DIFFICULT TO REPRO, BUT HERE ARE THE STEPS: 1. OPEN THE TRUNK. 2. CLOSE THE TRUNK 3. OBSERVE THAT BOTH TURN SIGNALS ARE SOLIDLY LIT 4. OBSERVE THAT THE CAR NO LONGER RESPONDS TO THE REMOTE. AT THIS POINT, THE ONLY WAY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR IS TO TAKE OUT THE EMERGENCY KEY - WHICH WILL THEN TRIGGER THE THEFT ALARM. LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS: 1.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SERVICE SHOP 5 TIMES FOR "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM FAILURE", "TIRE PRESSURE LOW", AND "CHARGING SYSTEM FAILURE" WITH NO RESOLVE BY THE DEALERSHIP. THESE MESSAGES WERE ALL ON THE RADIO DISPLAY PRIOR TO TODAY TO WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY ARE FALSE FLAGS. I AM NOT SURE HOW A "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" ANYWHERE ON A DASH IS A FALSE FLAG. THESE MESSAGES GENERALLY OCCURRED UPON STARTUP BUT MANY TIMES WHILE DRIVING. LAST NIGHT, ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WOULD NOT START UP AT THIS TIME.

THERE ARE THREE PROBLEMS I WANT TO COMPLAIN: 1) INFORMATION SCREEN FLICKERS FOR 10 MINUTES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE. I SENT IT TO DEALER SHOP, BUT THEY SAID THAT THEY NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM, AND HAD NO SOLUTION. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AT LEAST THREE TIMES PER WEEK IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. 2) INFORMATION SCREEN SHOWS SIX DIFFERENT WARNING MESSAGES AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, INCLUDING ABS FAILURE, VSA FAILURE, LOW BATTERY LEVEL, COLLISION MITIGATION FAILURE, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE ETC. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THE REASON THEY TOLD ME IS THAT THEY HAD ONE OF MY TIRES REPLACED ONE WEEK BEFORE AND TPMS HAD NOT BEEN RESET CORRECTLY. HOWEVER, WHY IT TOOK TWO WEEKS FOR THE SYSTEM TO GIVE THE WARNING MESSAGES INSTEAD OF RIGHT AFTER TIRE GOT CHANGED? 3) TPMS FAILED TO DETECT FLAT TIRE. I WAS DRIVING A CAR WITH ONE FLAT TIRE FOR 1 MILE, AND THE TPMS EVEN FAILED TO DETECT THE FLAT TIRE.

COMPUTER SYSTEM HAD A MAJOR MALFUNCTION, TRIGGERING 6 DIFFERENT WARNINGS, AND AN AUDIBLE MESSAGE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER AND PARK THE VEHICLE AND HAVE A DEALER INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GAS. MY FAMILY WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH THE CAR IN ACCESSORY MODE, LISTENING TO THE RADIO. AFTER FINISHING UP FUELING, ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATER, I RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE. I GOT IN, SHUT THE DOOR, PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PRESSED THE BUTTON TO START THE VEHICLE, PUT ON MY SEAT BELT, AND THEN SAW THE MESSAGES. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WITH THE CAR ON AND READING THE MESSAGES, A VOICE STARTED TO TALK AND TELL ME, TO STOP THE VEHICLE, PARK IT, AND HAVE A DEALER LOOK AT IT. THE 6 MESSAGES ON THE CENTER DISPLAY SAID VARIOUS THINGS. SUCH AS THEY WERE TITLED: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM THE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM CMBS PROBLEMS ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM TIRE PRESSURE LOW BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM THE ALARMING NUMBER OF PROBLEMS ABOUT THE BRAKE SYSTEM ALONE, TELLS ME THIS VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN. COMBINE THAT WITH THE AUDIABLE MESSAGE ABOUT PULLING OVER AND PARKING THE VEHICLE, NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND IS GOING TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS PROPERLY LOOKED AT. THE DEALER DID LOOK AT IT, AND SAID IT WAS THE VSA MODULATOR, AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, THERE IS CASE AFTER CASE OF THIS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM FOUND ONLINE. YET PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES, INCLUDING MINE ARE BEING SENT BACK ONTO THE ROAD IN THESE VEHICLES OF WHICH HONDA HAS NOT AND CANNOT PROVIDE A FIX FOR BECAUSE IT, ITSELF DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. ANY THEREFORE NO ONE KNOWS IF THEIR CAR IS CRYING WOLF, AND JUST WAITING TO KILL THEM. I DON'T WANT MY CAR IF I CAN'T TRUST IT. I JUST CAN"T WAGER MY FAMILIES LIVES ON THAT. THEY ARE WILLING TO TELL US TO DRIVE AROUND IN THE VEHICLE EVEN BEFORE THE FIRST REPAIR IS TRIED. THE ERRORS ARE RELATED TO BRAKES

I PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE WITH 29 MILES ON IT. I RECEIVED THE KEY, PAIRED A PHONE WITH BLUETOOTH, AND PUT IT IN DRIVE, THEN THE DASH LIT UP WITH FLASHING ERROR SIGNALS FOR ENGINE, TIRE PRESSURE, BRAKES. IT'S STILL IN THE SHOP.

I PURCHASED A HONDA CIVIC LX ON 5-1-16, MY TEST DRIVE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES LONG AND I DID NOT EXPERIENCE ANY PAIN. MY DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP WAS APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES LONG. BY THE TIME I ARRIVED HOME MY ARMS AND LEGS WERE NUMB, I HAD PAIN IN MY SACRAL, LUMBAR, AND CERVICAL SPINE AREAS. I HAD JUST TRADED IN MY 2016 HONDA FIT PURCHASED O 3-3-16 AT A $4,000.00 DOLLAR LOSS DUE TO SEVER BACK PAIN AND EXTREMITY NUMBNESS WHILE DRIVING THE SALESMAN TOLD ME THE REASON THE HONDA FIT 2016 SEATS WERE SO BAD WAS DO TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE MADE IN MEXICO. I AM 5'3" AND I WEIGH 122 LB. I DO YOGA ALMOST EVERY DAY AND CONSIDER MYSELF PHYSICALLY FIT. I HAVE NO HISTORY OF BACK PAIN. THE SEAT BOTTOM IS SO LOW AND SHORT THAT I HAVE NOTHING UNDER MY THIGHS FOR SUPPORT AND THE ANGLE OF THE SEAT FLOOR IS SO SEVER THAT MY KNEES ARE UP BY THE STEERING WHEEL AND MY BUTTOCKS IS WAY DOWN CLOSE TO THE FLOOR. MY KNEES ARE CONSTANTLY HITTING THE CENTER CONSOLE AND DRIVER DOOR WHEN TURNING OR HITTING BUMPS IN THE ROAD. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CAR OWNER FOR MANY YEARS AND AM SHOCKED BY THIS DANGEROUS GEOMETRICAL ERROR IN ERGONOMICS THAT HONDA IS MARKETING. MY RESPONSE TIME COULD BE SEVERELY HINDERED DO TO THE HAZAROUS INTERIOR SET UP OF THIS 2016 CIVIC LX.

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD AT SPEED LIMIT ON CR 201 IN FLORIDA (WEST OF I-95 WHICH IS A SECONDARY, MAIN, PAVED ROAD) MY EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED AFTER I ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE BUTTON ON THE CONSOLE. MY VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND VEERED OFF THE ROAD TO THE RIGHT. ONCOMING TRAFFIC ALSO VEERED AWAY AND FOLLOWING TRAFFIC HAD TO USE EVASIVE MEASURES TO AVOID COLLISION. WHEN I BOUGHT MY NEW HONDA, I ASKED THE SALES REP IF THAT WAS AN ISSUE AND HE (RAY AT COGGIN HONDA) SAID "ABSOLUTELY NOT" AND EXPLAINED (PARAPHRASED) THAT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE IN PLACE TO ELIMINATE ANY PREMATURE OR ACCIDENTAL EMERGENCY ENGAGEMENT OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE IN GEAR AND WHILE DRIVING.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2016 HONDA CIVIC EX, FOUR DOOR. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK YESTERDAY MORNING AT 5 AM. I HAD APPROACHED APX 56 MPH AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING, ACROSS THE DASHBOARD SCREEN WAS A BLINKING RED STATING, BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE. ! KEEP IN MIND, THIS VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW I HAVE LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT ! AT THE TIME OF THE SCREEN ON THE DASH BLINKING WHAT SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN AN EMERGENCY BRAKE DEPLOYED AS I WAS DECELERATING CAUSING ME TO COME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY! LUCKY FOR ME THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME, BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE TURNED FATAL. I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO TRY AND RELAX. I TURNED THE CAR OFF. TURNED IT BACK ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS STILL BLINKING SAYING FAILURE. I TURNED IT OFF AGAIN AND BACK ON AND THE LIGHT HAD STOPPED BLINKING. I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE AND I DID, JUST THINKING IT WAS A FREAK THING. ON MY WAY INTO BOSTON, THE DASH LIT UP AGAIN WITH THE SAME MESSAGE. WHEN I WAS SAFE IN A PARKING LOT I CALLED HONDA AND HAD MY CAR TOWED, AT THIS POINT I NO LONGER FELT SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP IN BOSTON. AS OF YET, THEY HAVE NOT DECIDED WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. IF I GET UPDATES I WILL UPDATE THEM. THE LAST I HEARD IS THAT THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM MODULE HAD FAILED. HOW CAN THIS BE , WHEN THE CAR IS NEW ? HOW CAN I HAVE FAITH DRIVING MY VEHICLE , THAT THIS WON'T HAPPEN WHEN I AM IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK? DEALING WITH HONDA CORPORATE HAS BEEN AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE! FOUR HOURS WORTH OF PHONE CALLS FOR THEM TO SECURE ME IN A RENTAL SO I AM SAFE DRIVING. THIS IS CRAZY! I AM SADDENED. HOW CAN A BRAND NEW CAR HAVE A FAILURE WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM ?

I CRANKED UP MY BRAND NEW HONDA AND A EMISSIONS SYSTEM ERROR DISPLAYED. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND DROVE IT TO THEM. IN RETROSPECT THAT WAS PROBABLY A BAD IDEA. MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COULD HAVE GLITCHED AND I COULD HAVE BEEN HURT. RODENTS ATE MY WIRING HARNESS THIS WEEKEND. AS PER THE SERVICE TECH AT MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP THE WIRING HARNESS AND SURROUNDING PIECES ARE MADE FROM A SOYBEAN DERIVATIVE. THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO IT BECAUSE ESSENTIALLY IT'S A PROTEIN PACK ON TIRES. THIS IS MY 7TH HONDA (PRELUDE SI, CIVIC SI, ACCORD EX, CIVIC DX, HONDA ATV, HONDA ATV) AND I'VE NEVER HAD ANY CRITTER EAT ANYTHING HONDA RELATED BEFORE. I STILL PARK IN THE SAME PLACE. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. MY ANGST IS THAT HONDA IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE PARTS NOT MAD FROM SOYBEANS. IF MY NEW HONDA HAD BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH SOMETHING LESS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY IS IS HIGHLY PROBABLE THIS LOSS WOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. THE THING THAT FRUSTRATES ME THE MOST IS THAT HONDA'S BRAND OF RODENT DETERRENT TAPE IS NOT PART OF ANY DEALER OPTION PACKAGE. THEREFORE I WASN'T OFFERED A CHANCE TO BUY THE $30 ROLL OF RODENT TAPE FROM THE HONDA PARTS DEPARTMENT. NOW I'M LOOKING AT OVER $1000 IN DAMAGE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED BY TAPE AND HONDA CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE WAY THEY REPAIR IT WILL NOT PREVENT IT FROM OCCURRING AGAIN. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CALL FOR 3 MONTHS. I'M EXTREMELY CONCERNED IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER $1000 REPAIR. DOES HONDA TRULY BELIEVE THAT USING THESE PARTS IS OKAY? DO THEY EXPECT ME TO PURCHASE AN 8TH HONDA AFTER DEALING WITH THIS MESS? I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND USING THE CRUZE CONTROL IN OUR TOURING MODEL THE SYSTEMS WOULD FAIL AND THE DISPLAY MULTIPLE ERRORS LIKE STABILITY CONTROL AND COLLISION MITIGATION HAVE FAILED. TO RESET THESE WE HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD STOP THE ENGINE AND RESTART. WE HAVE VIDEOS OF THE DISPLAYS. IT HAPPENED AT ANY SPEED. THE PROBLEMS STARTED SHORTLY AFTER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 7 TIMES AND WAS ONLY FIXED AFTER WE THREATENED TO PROCEED WE THE TEXAS LIMON LAW.

CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH A "BRAKE HOLD" FEATURE THAT CAN BE ACTIVATED TO HOLD BRAKES ON WHILE THE CAR IS IN DRIVE WITHOUT KEEPING YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE, AND THEN PRESS GAS TO START MOVING. FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS, I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, I CAN HEAR THE BRAKE HOLD CLICK ON WITHOUT IT BEING TURNED ON (THERE WOULD BE AN INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH), TO TEST IT I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND THE CAR DID NOT MOVE EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKE HOLD WAS NOT ACTIVATED. SOME OF THESE TIMES, THE BRAKE HOLD WOULD COME ON, I WOULD TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS TO SEE IF IT WAS DOING IT, AND THEN 5-10 SECONDS LATER THE BRAKE WOULD RELEASE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD START TO MOVE WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING, AND WITHOUT ANY INDICATOR ON THE PANEL. THE BRAKE HOLD FEATURE STILL WORKS FINE WHEN I TURN IT ON, ALL LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND OFF WHEN THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO, BUT THE CAR SEEMS TO HOLD THE BRAKES WITHOUT ME ACTIVATING THE FEATURE, AND THEN THEY DO NOT HOLD UNTIL I GIVE THE CAR GAS, POTENTIALLY RELEASING THE CAR TO MOVE BEFORE I AM READY FOR IT TO IF I AM EXPECTING THE BRAKES TO BE HELD. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP, BUT THE UNEXPECTED RELEASE WILL CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO START MOVING SUDDENLY.

POSSIBLE ELECTRIC PROBLEM. HAVE MY CIVIC EX FOR A MONTH. WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALONE ON FREEWAY, I CANNOT OPEN MOON-ROOF, LOWER THE FRONT PASSAGE SIDE WINDOW OR ADJUST THE PASSAGE SIDE RARE MIRROR. ALL OTHER STUFF WORKS FINE. AFTER STOP AT A GAS STATION, I TURN OFF THE SYSTEM COMPLETELY AND WAITING FOR AROUND 1 MINS THEN TURN THE CAR ON AGAIN. PROBLEM IS STILL THE SAME. SO I WENT TO OPEN THE PASSAGE SIDE DOOR AND PUSH THE LOWER WINDOW BUTTON, IT WORKS. THEN I BACK TO DRIVER'S SEAT EVERYTHING WORKS FINE. HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT.

I BOUGHT A HONDA CIVIC EX 2016 2.0 L ON 2/17. ON 2/24, THE CAR BROKE DOWN MIDWAY (MILES DRIVEN 88). WHEN VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, ALL KINDS OF VIDEO WARNING MESSAGES LIKE PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSION, BRAKING SYSTEM, STEERING ETC. STARTED APPEARING ON THE CENTER DISPLAY WERE THE VEHICLE'S SPEED GETS DISPLAYED(PART OF THE TACHOMETER / SPEEDOMETER DISPLAY). I HAD TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. NEXT DAY THE DEALER RETURNED THE VEHICLE SAYING THE CAR WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION AND NO WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON. FROM THAT DAY ONWARDS, I STARTED FACING INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE FAILING TO ACCELERATE WHICH I FEEL IS VERY UNSAFE. ON 2/26 (AT SPEED OF 62 MPH) AND AGAIN ON 3/4 (AT SPEED OF 46), WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED LOSING ACCELERATION INSPITE OF ME PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR. NOW I AM REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALER ON 3/4 AND IT IS WITH THE DEALER FOR THE PAST 6 DAYS. TODAY (3/10), THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE VEHICLE IS IN PERFECT CONDITION AS THEY ARE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM. I AM NOT FEELING SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ANY MORE. I AM LUCKY THAT I DID NOT GET INTO ANY ACCIDENTS. THE DEALER IS REFUSING TO REPLACE MY VEHICLE AND HAVE ASKED ME TO TAKE BACK THE UNSAFE VEHICLE OR TRADE-IN THE VEHICLE AS AN USED VEHICLE. SINCE IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT, I AM LEFT WITH NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO BEAR THE LOSS AND TRADE IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS UNDER 200 MILES (MOST OF THE MILES ADDED DUE MY TRIPS TO DEALER AND THE MILES DRIVEN BY THE DEALER). I HAVE A CASE REGISTERED WITH AMERICAN HONDA. BUT THEY ALSO TURNED ME DOWN. I CANNOT TAKE IN ANY MORE PAIN. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE (HONDA CIVIC EX 2016 2.0 L) AND WAS ALSO ISSUED A STOP OF SALE. INSPITE OF ALL THESE I WAS SOLD THE VEHICLE PUTTING MY LIFE AT RISK. JUST BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT IN THE LIST DOES NOT MEAN THERE IS NO PROBLEM.

I LEASED A BRAND NEW 2016 HONDA CIVIC ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 2016 AND DROVE OFF THE LOT WITH 5 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 2016, MY CAR STARTED TO SHAKE, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS OTHER INDICATORS ON THE CAR, I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE OR PROPERLY OPERATE THE VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND CALLED THE DEALER WHO TOWED THE CAR TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I AM BEING TOLD THAT IT IS A LOW COMPRESSION PROBLEM IN THE CYLINDERS AND THAT IT HAD TO DO WITH THE ROCKER ARM NOT THAT IT IS PART OF THIS PISTON PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO THINK AT THIS POINT. THEY ARE KEEPING MY CAR UNTIL WEDNESDAY. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER TO SEE IF MY CAR WAS PART OF THE STOP SALE ORDER. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I DRIVE MY GRANDCHILD ON A DAILY BASIS AND DO NOT WANT TO LOSE ENGINE POWER AND I WILL HAVE THIS CAR FOR 3 MORE YEARS.

TODAY I FOUND OUT THAT HONDA ISSUED A RECALL OF APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MODEL YEAR 2016 CIVICS IN THE U.S. AND CANADA BECAUSE THE ENGINE CAN STALL WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS IS DUE TO A PISTON CLIP THAT WAS NOT INSTALLED OR MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED INTO THE PISTON DURING ASSEMBLY. I ALSO FOUND OUT THAT HONDA SENT A STOP SALE NOTICE TO ALL DEALERS ON FEBRUARY 2ND HOWEVER; MY 2016 CIVIC CAR WAS SOLD TO ME ON FEBRUARY 13TH FROM A HONDA DEALER LOCATED IN PHOENIX, AZ. I DID CONTACT THE DEALER AND AM TAKING MY CAR IN TOMORROW BUT I READ THAT THE PART OR INSPECTING INSTRUMENTS WON'T EVEN BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE END OF MARCH. NOT SURE IF THE DEALER WILL EVEN BE ABLE TO INSPECT MY CAR TOMORROW BUT I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING A CAR THAT COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE. CAN'T BELIEVE HONDA IS PUTTING LIVES AT RISK UNTIL THE NEW PART AND INSPECTING INSTRUMENT ARE AVAILABLE.
